i-Free Company became a partner of the Mobilefest festival-conference

March 18, 2013, St. Petersburg, Russia.

– The i-Free company has become a partner of the popular Mobilefest forum, addressed to mobile application developers and specialists in the field of mobile Internet. The forum will be held on March 22-23 near Moscow, in the Yakhroma Sports and Entertainment Park.

Mobilefest traditionally gathers the brightest, most talented and successful professionals working in the mobile application and mobile Internet market, as well as start-up teams and startups. Experts from Russia and CIS countries involved in the creation and promotion of mobile applications come to this festival-conference: developers, designers, project managers, marketers, producers, publishers.

i-Free has been supporting Mobilefest for a number of years, and this year it became a partner of the forum again. In addition, i-Free will hold a prize draw among the delegates: an i-Pad mini will be raffled off, as well as free attendance at major industry conferences.

Commenting on the collaboration with Mobilefest, Ekaterina Ivanova, Head of i-Free Events, said: "Mobilefest is a platform that unites industry leaders and those who are just starting their activities in the mobile application market. Active communication, exchange of opinions, experience, innovative ideas, discussion of projects, in which, along with market leaders, novice development teams participate equally – all this creates a new impetus for the development of the mobile application industry. Therefore, we are happy to support this forum, which has already gained wide recognition in the professional environment."

The Mobilefest program, as always, focuses on the most pressing issues of the development of the mobile application industry: the latest market trends, prospects for the development of the industry in Russia and the CIS, the secrets of creating and promoting applications. Forum participants will be able to communicate directly with developers and publishers of applications that have become recognized hits of the mobile market.

The festival will also include a summing up of the Hackaphone competition, where prototypes of applications for various mobile platforms will be presented: on March 23, DemoDay will be held, where the teams that reached the finals will demonstrate their projects. The winners of the competition will receive valuable prizes.

Representatives of i-Free have joined the Hackaphone jury: they will take part in evaluating ideas and selecting the best projects to be presented on DemoDay.
